It's Roud Up Time! We'll be taking a look back at May and briefly talking about our visit to Castle Combe for JDM Combe (yes I know this was June 2nd!) As promised here is the video of the amazing yellow Mk2 Escort:   The car made good power and my goodness what a soundtrack. I (James) was never a fan of the 4 Cylinder NA sound but this car might have changed that. The throttle bodies help a lot but when the car comes on at 4000 rpm it sounds amazing. Our next car was a bit of a...

Time for another roundup! This time we look back at April and look forward to some of the cool cars we'll be working on in May. We had new powerboard leaders in both 4WD and 2WD. In 2WD we had this awesome Supra in; we hope to see this car again once the slight misfire is fixed: In 4WD we had an awesome Evo 9; you can read all about the car in this post. We also had a PS13 drift car in for a Link ECU and mapping session. This car is an awesome colour and made decent power, thanks to...

It's been a busy few months here in Bridgwater!   We've had some amazing cars in and out of the workshop and dyno. Here are some of our highlights.  We had a mini dyno day back at the start of February, you can read more on that blog here. Here is the full video of Rusty Slider on the dyno: What a fun car that was to map! James is still smitten with the Audi S5 he did the power run on that day.  We also had 2 other special cars in for mapping. Both running Link Plug-In ECU's, we had this amazing Long...

A 160k miles BMW 535d in for a remap, totally stock car still running the DPF. This car is a fine example of a BMW; higher mileage yet still delivering great power and torque. Here is the before graph: 399 lbs/ft and 256 hp. Not bad for a 13 year old stock car!  We performed the remap and this is the after graph: Big gains! With 454 lbs/ft and 293hp. Total gains of 55 ft/lbs and and 36 HP. Nice! As we can also see from the graph; the torque and power curve is much smoother and we see the torque...

Drift Car heaven at GBE. Over the past few weeks we've had quite a run in drift cars, I guess this shows how popular drifting is at the moment!  The highlight has to be "Rusty Slider" - a Ford 100E Prefect. Well the shell of a 100E at least! From this: To this: Tom, who owns the car, has done an incredible job and it's a real credit to him, the car is running a Nissan CA18DET engine with a Link Monsoon ECU. See more pictures and info on the car here on Tom's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rustysliderdrift/ Here is the graph, not...
